In an effort to meet the growing needs of our studio’s wonderful students, in the fall of 2016 the studio will debut our newest performance ensemble: Berks Vocal Arts

For those singers looking for inspiration and challenge, increased rigor, complex music, Vocal Arts has been designed. Vocal Arts students will be held to the highest standards of attendance, behavior, and accountability. Vocal Arts students will be expected to make Vocal Arts a top priority and there will be a strict attendance policy.

The Details

Berks Vocal Arts

A diverse vocal ensemble devoted to achieving vocal excellence through artistic expression and a rigorous work ethic with emphasis on building musicianship through sight reading & the performance of challenging choral literature.

Have any teacher write a confidential recommendation letter about you describing your overall commitment to excellence, behavior in class/rehearsal and typical attendance; the letter should describe the teacher’s perception of your individual strengths AS WELL AS areas for improvement and growth. The letter should be sealed and signed by the teacher across the seal. You should not request a separate copy of this letter from the teacher or ask to see their letter, as it is confidential.

5. Student Essay

Please write why you would like to be a part of Vocal Arts. What do you hope to glean from the experience and what unique traits do you plan to bring to the group? What will your level of commitment be? What are your strengths as a choral singer and what areas do you hope to improve?

Fall registration will open during summer 2016. Auditions may be scheduled anytime after June 1, 2016, provided the student is fully prepared in all categories, 1-5 above.

Contact Tricia Keith (Ms. Trish :D) when you are prepared with all of the above and ready to schedule your audition appointment.
